Well, honey, a division problem where the quotient is larger than the dividend is technically not possible in the realm of real numbers. You see, division is all about breaking things down into smaller parts, so it's like trying to fit a big ol' watermelon into a tiny little cup - just ain't gonna happen. Stick to addition if you want to see numbers grow, sweetie.
If the divisor of the dividend is a fraction then the quotient is increased as for example 14 divided by 2 = 7 but 14 divided by 1/2 or 0.5 = 28
Rules for dividing by a fraction are multiply by the reciprocal. The reciprocal of a unit fraction is a whole number. Multiplying by a whole number will make the answer (quotient) larger. ex unit fraction 1/a 7 divided by 1/a = 7 x a/1 = 7a .... a times larger than 7.
yes
The answer depends on the sign of the numbers.(1/4) / 2 = 1/8, which is smaller.(-1/4) / 2 = -1/8, which is greater.
Because it's a fraction
The quotient is larger than the original fraction.

True.
it is smaller (1/2)/2=.25
There are usually more zeros in dividends because it is more preferible that the larger number is in the dividends section
I have no idea about the quotation, but the quotient is less than the divisor.
The quotient is less than the fraction.
